We consider two possible ways, i.e., the Maxwellian Iteration and the Chapman-Enskog Method, to recover Relativistic Ordinary Thermodynamics from Relativistic Extended Thermodynamics of Polyatomic gases with N moments. Both of these methods give the Eckart equations which are the relativistic version of the Navier-Stokes and Fourier laws as a first iteration. However, these methods do not lead to the same expressions of the heat conductivity \chi, the shear viscosity \mu, and the bulk viscosity \nu which appear as coefficients in the Eckart equations. In particular, we prove that the expressions of \chi, \mu, and \nu obtained via the Chapman-Enskog method do not depend on N , while those obtained through the Maxwellian Iteration depend on N . Moreover, we also prove that these two methods lead to the same results in the nonrelativistic limit. |
